It is with a heavy heart that we announce we will no longer be updating Aotg.com. Back in 2007, when we started, there was a lack of access to information about film, television, and commercial editing. We wanted to fix that by creating a central location for content about editing to be stored.
Since then, we've watched the amount of content about editing on the internet grow exponentially. We've also watched social media tools come and go with that growth. Does anyone remember Google Wave!? These social media tools changed how people access and search for media and information. People tend to turn to Facebook, Youtube, Twitter, and Instagram for their news and information, and those are all great tools to promote your sites, but as a site that aggregates links to other sites for users, it just doesn't work for us.
We will keep the site live but archive the ability to add links and comments. We will keep our database live with the links for those who desire to use it to search for editing information and research.
Our podcast, The Cutting Room, will move over to the Filmmakeru.com website and will continue to be a place for interviews with editors and other film professionals.
Everyone who worked for Aotg.com loved what we created and are proud that we could help so many editors find content that spoke to them.
I look forward to seeing everyone at the various post events worldwide in the coming years!
Yours truly,
Gordon Burkell
Aotg.com Founder

Last week, Apple invited a few folks, including me, to a short meeting in Cupertino where they previewed the up-coming version of Final Cut Pro. While I am under NDA and can’t talk about what I saw, I CAN tell you the meeting happened and that it showcased the new Final Cut Pro.

Movie trailers can sometimes confuse the viewer because they may contain gaps in them that the filmmaker has left there, thinking that these will make sense to the viewer. However, if the viewer is not well informed about the movie, the gaps will only end up confusing him. As a filmmaker, you should know how to edit movie trailers so that those gaps make sense to all kinds of viewers. A good movie trailer must represent the overall tone of your movie. Here is a look at the steps that you will...

Panasonic Solutions beefed up 3D options at its annual pre-NAB press event, held earlier today in New York City, announcing a new P2 deck that, in tandem with a second unit, can enable high-quality 3D recording, as well as options in stereo 3D switching, and 24p shooting. The company also brought the always-welcome news of price cuts on its line of P2 media, effective immediately, but there were no entirely new cameras on offer. Those announcements, officials strongly hinted, will be...

Straightforward storytelling is the last thing anyone expected from the Coen brothers, more famous for tight filmic twists and dark comic turns. But in their new feature film, True Grit, based on the classic novel of the same name by Charles Portis, the Coens deliver precisely that. The movie’s narrative line is as unwavering as its precocious hero, 14-year-old Mattie Ross (Hailee Steinfeld), whose determined pursuit of her father’s killer in the post-Civil War Indian territories drives and....

Here’s a really cool Avid Media Composer Reader Quicktip that comes from Evan Schiff. It’s quite clever and I didn’t have a clue you could do this. It can come in handy if you ever have a piece of media that is a self-contained edit and you need to add edit points to that self-contained media that matches the original cut that’s still in your timeline. I could see using this after a color correction has come back for final finishing.
